Paying Hommage to The Header Card

I'm cleaning out my header card /bag mess today and tossing all the bags. While I'm at it I'll post a few of the cool header cards I found, so far these two caught my eye:

So here are some cool headers I've dug up in my effort to purge myself of the great mass of bags:

M1go Daimon Header:

I'm especially fond of the witch in the rafters and the jumping warlock looking guy:

Someone already posted this but that Zag illustration on this Gargamel mini header is great:

^^^ Bottom left Buta header with goji is one of my favorite header cards.

My only beef with the M1 Ultrakaiju header is that they NEVER MADE A MUMMY MAN!
They owe us a Dodongo playset, complete with collapsing mountain!

M1 Rules. Love Them.

Here's the older Siccaluna (Shikaruna) headers, I personally love them more than the generic new ones:

Two more and I swear I'm done! I really dig both of these header cards. The first one is from Pilot Ace/Beagle Cyclops and despite its crazy 60's psychedelia pop art look, totally fitting for the toy it contained. Stealthtank you're off the hook for a header, since I got a new cyclops that had one (kidding). Second by Nostalgic Heros is almost the whole reason I bought that mini gid baltan. Header art is fantastic. Would love to have a poster size print of that on my wall (it's really tiny):

Man, this is a good thread.
I'm with you on the Bemon header art. Almost HALF the reason I would get a Bemon is the header art. Love that typography design.

Keep them coming!

One of my favorites. Simple, got that 80s throwback and some Mad Max vibe to it...

Thanks to all who have shared, there are some really inspiring pieces here.

Amazing! Just beautiful

This header came with the tattoo Dog. I really like the old school tattoo vibe to it, especially with the head. I hope no one finds this offensive.

Love Shikaruna's Anime header cards:

Really like this Popsoda header!

Went through my headers, scanned some favorites:

Another Bemon variant:

M1-go's headers are so cool !

Forgot about this thread! Love it!

Here are a couple more uncommon M1 headers:
